Love like this – it is pure bliss, Striving to understand, more beautiful than I planned, Love this amazing – leaves my feelings blazing, Yearning for forever and always, together we’ll stargaze. Love so tender – it makes my heart surrender, Renounce all my fears and let go of a few tears. Love this inspiring – it won’t ever be expiring… This is the flame, that puts worry to shame. Love so alive, a reminder – the last organ grinder, Tempts my soul to listen, the sound of joy will glisten, Raising smiles in hearts where every true love starts… Love this inviting – sets my pen to writing… Tempting the feelings, the light, promising to excite, Love beyond my prayers – like angels visiting unawares, Silencing the darkest dread, kindness this love will spread. Love like the lavender hills, in a voice that truly stills, Promising the spirit to ever stir, bringing joy hearts prefer, Love so graceful and alluring, it feels like it will be enduring, With kindness that dances through time, bringing chances… For lives to be changed, for lives to be rearranged. Love like this one, it holds the keys to feelings that are won, Inspired by the sweet memoirs, sung by old guitars. Love this beautiful is a sign, heart and soul will combine… To create a moment in life when there is not any strife, Just believe in this love that comes from above…. And know that it’s grace will bring God’s sweetest embrace. Love, beyond words or rhymes, is worth more, sometimes, Than any poem can reveal – it often comes from hearts who kneel, Worshipping the One who inspires, knowing that love requires… A foundation in the Son, the love that won’t be outdone, Love this wonderful, this sweet – will never be playing on the street. It will always be found in the soul who knows, to be made whole… Love must come from above, where faith fits like a glove, And every soul knows to cope, all you really need is the hope… That comes from giving in to the love that forgives all sin! Listen to the love who abides when all else has been denied, And you’re sure of the light that comes to life to rewrite… The love story that glows with a beauty who just flows, Erasing every doubt, promising the way out… Opening the soul to know – a peace that will make you whole, A love that is beyond verse… for better or worse, This love will only grow finer because it comes from the greatest designer! Love is alive – it will never deprive The heart who believes, the soul who receives Its greatest blessing from the One expressing… His love by giving – a love that is forgiving, A love that is amazing, sure it’s ever praising… With a music that comes to life in the sweet afterlife!
